A while ago I introduced some friends into the game, and I gotta tell you...I could tell they weren't enjoying the beginning. The new light story is just boring. There's no suspense and it's not engaging at all. It would be a lot easier to just bring back the red war, and after the ghost resurrects the guardian, and goes to the tower the first time (minus all that go here go there hassle) ikora says something like "Hey you need to know the past to understand the present" or something and take them to a vex time gate back to the red war. It would be a much better story, and you already have the assets. Please consider this. I want my friends to enjoy the game as much as I have

My missus lasted about 5 minutes in the new light story before she got bored and called it quits so I had to jump on her account and do it for her just so she could properly play with me, I can almost guarantee she'd rather red war, there's actual progression there as opposed to "spend 2mil glimmer to unlock abilities"
